I really want to thank Kumar Appaiah for his work. He provided
patches for all the bugs I NMUed today and lots more. I really did
not much more than applying, testing and uploading his patches, but
Kumar probably invested days of labor to create the patches and test
them. Thanks to his effort, the number of 2.6-blockers shrinked
considerably so that we now have like \~15 open blockers and \~50 closed
ones!
